Code First: Girls - An Exciting Way to Start your Web Development Journey!

Our wonderful media partners Code First: Girls would like to share some information below with you all! As very valued event partners of our Women in Technology Series we encourage you to read, consider and join! ...And you can always meet this lovely bunch at one of our events! #WinTec17

As working age women, all of us are having to do and understand a lot more about digital than we originally learnt at school. Whether it's digital comms, analytics, sales or business management, understanding the roles that digital and the Internet plays in our business are critical - regardless of role, level or industry.

Everyone's talking digital and coding nowadays, and one of the questions we get asked most often is 'what do digital and coding actually mean, and how do I learn more?'. If you are a woman interested in understanding more about tech and the web.

At Code First: Girls we wanted to create a beginner friendly evening coding course, that fits around people's day jobs, and allows them to learn with peers of a similar age, in a friendly and supportive environment.

Over the past three years, we at CF:G have helped 3500+ women learn how to code, and have worked with companies ranging from Bank of America Merrill Lynch to Twitter, helping them to meet more women interested in tech and understand better how they can hire better tech talent.

The course is designed to help you understand more about what coding is, how does it factor into the internet and the world wide web, as well code you own website, and if you want to venture into a career in web development then we would love for you to start your journey with us.

There are lots of courses available, free and paid, which are great ways to learn how to code. Of course we at CF:G believe we deliver great courses at a highly competitive prices, but where we really add value is with our community and network. For many of us professionals who do evening/extra-curricular courses, interest tends to fade as soon as the classes end, and keeping yourself motivated can be a challenge. Here at CF:G we work really hard to provide a whole ecosystem of activities that you can get involved in outside of the courses, to allow you to continue to learn and develop your interests as well as meet some truly astonishing like minded peers and a visit from a tech industry professional who will share more about the industry.

As a part of our community you will receive invitations to join for events and conferences run by Code First: Girls. Bonus!
